Thanks. (I always ask just in case because often users have strange
things in their LaTeX preambles or modules or strange document
classes).

It is still the case. It turns out it has to do with the babel
definition for French. Take a look at
ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/unix/tex/CTAN/language/babel/contrib/frenchb/frenchb.pdf
See section 2.11:
In French the first paragraph of each section should be indented, this
is another difference with US-English.

I'm not sure how LyX could know this. We could make a list of how
things currently are in babel and hope the indentations don't change
often. Parsing the language definition files is probably overkill.
